Beauty Tips We Learned from Our Moms

by

To celebrate Mother’s Day (which is this Sunday, so don’t forget to call your mom!), we’ve asked tons of people in the fashion and beauty industries for the most memorable beauty tip their moms ever gave them.

My Fashion Week Nightmare… with Eva Chen

by Leah Chernikoff & Mara Sprafkin

Anyone who works in the industry has had ‘em: A fashion week related nightmare. We asked designers, editors and stylists to share theirs with us, and then we asked our friend (and super talented artist) Mara Sprafkin illustrate them. Don’t be scared…

Yesterday, former Fashionista editor and current LuckyMag.com executive editor Lauren Sherman shared her horror story of falling into the Gap (and giving birth there!). Today, Eva Chen shares with us a dream about a leopard print boat – nothing nightmarish about this one!
